Stop being a hermit

Every day I’ve been trying to do at least one activity outside my home, and for a good amount of time.

Even though most of the times it’s just myself at the beach, that’s still good progress. Lately I’ve cut my computer time down from 6-12 hours a day (eye-opening) to less than 2 hours a day (total combined, that is)

Maybe in a few months, if I keep this up and try to improve it a little more, I might be able to mark this as done.

Of all the goals in my list, this one has suddenly accumulated the most. Sure, it’s overly convenient to be protected from the elements and society, and have that wonderful internet access all day long, but it’s time to take some form of action on this goal.

Although actually I have gradually started to emerge from inside the safe confines of my home more often, actually I’ve been doing that every day now for about a month. Not good enough, but a decent start.

I’m going to the beach every day to do my workouts, and trying to spend more time outdoors doing things away from my computer.

Maybe later in the year when the price of fuel goes down (as if), I’ll start driving to the big cities around the island and see what fun things are happening there.

I actually went out to the Santa Barbara film festival the previous week with a group of people. It was my first outing since going for a drink with a friend around Christmas. Yay!
